The year the Easter holiday happened to fall on April 8th, the First Day of the Writing of The Book of the Law. As you can see from the photo, not only did the Hawk-Headed Mystical Lord peck out the eyes of Jesus as he hangs on the cross, flap his wings in the face of Mohammed and blind him, and tear out the flesh of the Indian and the Buddhist, Mongol and Din - he also kicked the Easter Bunny's ass. Bahlasti! Ompehda! I spit on your crapulous colored eggs!
On a more serious note, though, I want to thank everyone who attended and helped out with the Office of the Readings, which wrapped up yesterday. This is my working group's eighth year putting them on, and everything went very well. After all these years we're certainly getting the hang of it, and as usual re-reading all of the texts in sequence spurred a number of new realizations regarding their content and meaning. It's a good practice, and we look forward to putting it on for many years to come.
Happy Thelemic New Year to all, and to all a good night!
Dude, I busted out laughing just at the title and the picture.
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty much my response when I saw the picture on Facebook, too. The Thelemic Holy Days just made it better.
